PurePoint Energy and Tips on How to Save Energy


As a renewable energy consultant and developer, PurePoint Energy values positive environmental leadership. A key solution to preserving our environment is renewable energy. This is why PurePoint Energy is focusing our efforts in educating consumers and citizens on the benefits of going green. There are small adjustments you can make to save energy and use electricity right now!

  • Turn off unneeded lights/use energy efficient light bulbs
  • Turn off your computer at night.
  • Use microwave instead of oven for cooking meals.
  • Use laptops instead of desktops- Laptops draw 15-25 watts when used. This is compared to an astounding 150 watt of a PC.
  • Use thick curtains- Thick curtains provide better insulation, which can make a huge noticeable difference in comfort and electric bills.
  • Showers instead of baths- More hot water is used when taking baths, which results in more energy use.
  • Unplug devices from electrical outlets- Most devices still draw up to 90% of their power usage when turned off.
There are currently generous rebates and incentives to get a residential energy audit in Connecticut. Please contact PurePoint Energy 203-642-4105 to learn more on how we can help you or your organization go Green. Please visit our website at http://www.purepointenergy.com to learn more.
